Relationship between local and total bone mineral content after gastric surgery
Abstract
We compared the total body bone mineral mass (TBBM), assessed by the dual-photon technique, with the local bone mineral mass (BMC), measured by single-photon absorptiometry, in 27 ulcus patients treated by either gastric resection or parietal cell vagotomy. Except for raised concentrations of serum alkaline phosphatase in the Billroth I resection group, the biochemical findings and the measurements of bone mass (local and total) were normal. A highly significant correlation between local and total body bone mineral mass was found in both patients (r = 0.84) and controls (r = 0.91). Since the relationship between these two measurements is identical in the patient population and in the age-matched control group, it is concluded that the local BMC may be useful to estimate total bone mass after gastric surgery.
